“Huh?” Harvey was stunned for a moment and forgot to swallow the steak in his mouth. Why did he not know when this was going to happen?
Xynthia was even more disgusted when she saw Harvey gobbling. She said coldly, “I’m not afraid to tell you. Brother Don has officially proposed marriage to the Zimmer family. He will send the dowries tonight. If you are smart enough, just don’t do anything. If you aren’t…”
Xynthia sneered when she said this. Although the Zimmer family ran a legitimate business, they still had a few bodyguards in the family. If this loser wanted to cause trouble, they would surely knock him down.
“Well, everyone, keep quiet. Senior has something to announce!”
At the top position, Senior Zimmer reached out his hand and knocked on the table. He anticipated and said, “You should all have heard about the news, right? Not sure why, but the president of York Enterprise has suddenly changed. The new president has terminated all the investments that have been negotiated before. An additional 5 billion dollars will be funded to invest…”
“I don’t know how mysterious the new president is, but his appearance is a great opportunity for the Zimmer family!”
“Many families and businesses in Niumhi have been affected. It can be said that there’ll be a major reshuffle in Niumhi…”
“The Zimmer family has been considered a wealthy family in Niumhi over the years. But let's ask ourselves honestly, we are just a second-class family…”
“If we want to have greater influence in Niumhi and want the Zimmer family to grow further, what we have now is insufficient…”
“If we—the Zimmer family want to become a first-class family, and even a top-class family with influence in South Light in the future, then we must not miss this opportunity!”
“As long as we can cooperate with York Enterprise, as long as we could get on with the new president, as long as we can get a share of the 5 billion dollars! Then, we will be able to do whatever we want in Niumhi!”
The members of the Zimmer family looked at each other in silence after Senior Zimmer had finished speaking.
Cooperating with York Enterprise? Getting on with the new president?
Everyone knew that this was an opportunity, let alone the Zimmer family. Who in Niumhi did not want to cooperate with York Enterprise? Who did not want to get to know the new president?
However, York Enterprise was backed by the Yorks in South Light. They would surely look down upon a second-class family like the Zimmer family.
The Zimmer family wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to grow. However, they seemed to be daydreaming because the possibility was too low.
Senior Zimmer’s face darkened seeing that no one responded. He said with displeasure. “Why? You are all so active when you are taking bonuses. Now when it’s time to run errands, all of you are backing out like cowards! A bunch of losers!”
The eldest son of the Zimmer family, Mandy’s uncle—Sean Zimmer knocked on the table and said, “Father, what you said is good. But the problem is that we have never succeeded in getting York Enterprise’s investments for so many years. Furthermore, they have changed to a new president now. How could things be so easy?”
Senior Zimmer looked at him and said coldly, “If things are so easy, I can just solve them with a single call. Do I need to discuss with you all?”
